Answer:

(a) 896

(b) 1000

(c) 910

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of women = 8

Number of men = 6

A committee consisting of 3 men and 3 women is to be formed.

(a) 2 of the men refuse to serve together.

Number of men who don't want to serve together = 2

Remaining men = 4

Total ways = Both men who don't want to serve together are not selected + only one of them is selected.

^{8}C_{3}\cdot ^{4}C_{3}+^{8}C_{3}\cdot ^{4}C_{2}\cdot ^{2}C_{1}

896

(b) 2 of the women refuse to serve together.

Number of women who don't want to serve together = 2

Remaining men = 6

Total ways = Both women who don't want to serve together are not selected + only one of them is selected.

^{6}C_{3}\cdot ^{6}C_{3}+^{6}C_{3}\cdot ^{6}C_{2}\cdot ^{2}C_{1}

1000

(c)1 man and 1 woman refuse to serve together.

Ways = Total ways - Both man and woman are select who refuse the serve together

^{8}C_{3}\cdot ^{6}C_{3}-^{5}C_{2}\cdot ^{7}C_{2}

vova2212 [387]

Answer:  D) Number of yards Jerry cuts; 0 ≤ x ≤ 10  

Step-by-step explanation:

Here the given function that describes the total profit,

y = 15 x - 10

Where x represents the number of lawns Jerry cut in a week.

But, Depending homework and chores, he has time to cut at most 10 lawns a week.

Thus, x ≤ 10

Also, the number of lawns can not be negative.

Therefore, x ≥ 0

And, the value of x will decide the domain of the function y,

Thus, the domain of the given function is,

0 ≤ x ≤ 10

⇒ Option D is correct.
